The beginning of Summer in Amenix is always recognized by the white rose flowers turning more whiter. The white rose flowers represents the life of the Guardian Queen and this flowers changes every season. 

Amenix is a powerful, magical world filled with humans and strange creatures but not all are born with magical talents.

It is a peaceful, beautiful, creative and united world ruled by the Guardian Queen, Queen Frida, the most powerful being in Amenix and her seven Guardians. 

Amenix is divided into seven cities, The City of Beauty, City of knowledge, City of Love, City of Strength, City of wonder, City of Serenity, City of Light and each is protected by the Guardians. 

As summer began, the people stayed indoors with their families because of the extreme change in the whole sphere. 

The world outside evolved to summer and this is forbidden to be seen. 

This made children who needed to go to school extremely happy and so was little Roslyn Clark as she jumped up and down excitedly on her sister's bed.

"Do you know how dreadful school is?" She asked dramatically as she landed on her sister's back.

"Ros, you are just seven. School shouldn't be that hard" Fina said

"Hard! That's an understatement of the world! It's boring!" She said, dragging on the 'b' "And you keep looking at the time everyday and every moment! Oh, Fina, I feel like I was going to die every time Mr Wine teaches us Chemistry! Mendeleev says this, Rutherford said that! The man never shuts up! I swear it's like he have tea parties with those scientists in his room every night! It's so strange and unusual!"

Fina burst out laughing and set aside the novel she was reading beside her pink pillow.

She tackled her little sister beneath her and she squealed.

"No tickle. No tickle! I swear it's more terrible than hearing Mrs Benson call us all animals in biology!" Ros shouted in between laughter.

Fina tickled her until she could see tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Fina Arianna Clark! What are you doing with little Rosalinda?!"

Fina stopped and turned to see her brother, Jay, coming forward.

Jay put his hand on his chest as if he was going to faint, imitating their mother.

"And here I thought poor Rosalinda was safe with you!"

Roslyn giggled under her.

"Mum will kill you, Jay Jay!" Roslyn said

Fina released Ros and sat cross-legged on her bed.

"And you, your mama is looking for you downstairs!" Jay said

Ros giggled and jumped from the bed. 

She ran out of the room screaming-

"Ma. Jay is imitating you!"

"How dare you, Jay? I'm kicking you out of the City of Knowledge!" Their mother shouted from downstairs. 

He was nineteen and two years older than Fina. Her brother was tall and handsome with his little beard which he always finds charming. Thinks it makes him look all grown up.

He lay on the bed beside Fina with his hands folded and tucked behind his head.

Then he looked at his sister with twinkling blue eyes.

"What?" Fina asked.

"You know how girls always look at me as if I am the only thing that exists in the world?"

Fina rolled her eyes.

"Yes. Roll it. I am" Jay continued "I figured out that it's because I'm cool"

"Get out of my room, Jay" Fina said and climbed off the bed.

"You know Elfina are recruiting new students' right?" Jay asked "It's all over the news"

Fina turned to look at her brother.

"What does that has to do with me?" She asked slowly.

Jay sat up slowly and looked her in the eye.

"It's been a week since you turned seventeen"

Fina raised a perfect straight brow at him.

"So?" She asked

"Elfina recruits new students at age seventeen"

"Only lucky magic potential students, Jay. I don't know anything about magic"

Jay smirked at her.

"You do. Mum rehearses Elfina's history to poor Roslyn every night. I swear that girl won't grow up being normal"

Fina moved to her dressing mirror and took a sit.

"Why weren't you sad when Elfina didn't take you in as a student?"

Jay lay back on the bed again.

"When people talks about how good something is, you lose interest in it"

"Jay, Elfina's the oldest and biggest school in the world. It ages more than a thousand years"

"Mum is really getting to you too, huh?" Jay asked

Fina took the brush on the pink dressing table and began to brush her long dark brown hair which falls smoothly down her back.

"I like my school and I don't see me going to Elfina anytime soon. It's not happening. Besides, I don't know anything about magic. Elfina is not meant for someone like me."

"Kids! Dinner is ready!" Mrs Clark called from the lower floor.

Jay groaned loudly.

"I told her I am not a kid. I have a beard"

"A beard doesn't make you all grown up, Jay" Fina said

"Yeah. Yeah. Is that one of Einstein quotes again?" Jay said as he got up and walked out of the room. "I hate smart people"

Fina packed her hair in a ponytail and went downstairs for dinner, smiling when she heard her mother talking about Elfina to little Roslyn again.

"It's a world free from demons, evil spirits and it's in our City~

"Mum! Are we going to eat or not?" Tyler shouted from the dining table.

"Hold your horns, dear! Dinner is almost ready!" Mrs Clark said

Tyler grumbled.

"Tyler Clark. If you don't want me to~

"Is he at it again?" Edward Clark asked coming down from the stairs.

Mrs Clark dropped Roslyn from the kitchen counter and closed her book to take a look at the fish stew she was preparing.

Jay sighed on his seat with his spoons already in hand, waiting for dinner.

Mr Edward Clark took the head seat and glanced at his son who was busy staring at the clock in the North direction.

"You know there's a spell to stop the time" He said

Tyler looked at his dad bearing almost the same resemblance with him with a weird expression.

They all had the same dark blue hair and blue eyes except Fina. Roslyn eyes were toffee brown. 

"Magic sucks" He replied

"How dare you, Tyler?" Mrs Emma Clark said as she served the soup.

"Magic is beautiful. And the guardians~ spectacular. The Guardian Queen-

"Mum, are we going to eat or not?"

Edward laughed.

"You know your mother is in love with magic. Too bad you weren't chosen" 

Tyler rolled his eyes.

"I do not regret it. I am Eighteen. Happy and glad not to be accepted. Do you know how scared I was that they will choose me when I was seventeen?" He asked and shuddered.

"Perhaps they will choose Roslyn" Edward said

"Rose is seven and she's stupid" Tyler said

Emma slapped him on the head.

"Ow!" 

"Can we start now?" Tyler murmured

Fina helped Emma to serve dinner and they all settled down to eat.

"You know Chanel just released a new brand of lipsticks in the City of Beauty. I am so excited! Fina, aren't you excited?"

Fina looked up from her plate.

"I have never used a lipstick before" She replied

"Really?" Emma asked, perplexed, as if that was the strangest thing she had ever heard.  "Well, that's a problem that needs to be gotten rid of"

"Don't paint my daughter like a clown, Emma. She is beautiful as she is" Edward said and winked at Fina.

"Can't we eat like a normal family?" Jay asked

"Oh, I met Mrs Robert today." Emma said

They all gave her a puzzled look.

"Mrs Robert? Our next door neighbour?" Emma asked "Anyone remember her?"

"Oh! Mrs Robert! I do remember her. You should have said, Mrs Rory Robert" Edward said

Emma sighed.

"Her name is Lola."

Silence.

Edward cleared his throat.

They ate their food in silence after that.

Fina went back to her room and changed to her sleeping wear, dreading to sleep because of her nightmares. 

She absently touched the Gardenia symbol beneath her collarbone. 

It was extremely light that no one else could see it. 

But she could see it clearly in the mirror. 

Knowing she couldn't outrun the nightmares, she got into bed. And after tossing in bed wildly, she finally fell asleep.

It was dark; she couldn't see anything except the feeling that her hands and feet were tied.

The sound of water drops as it hits the floor. The rapid heartbeat. The darkness as it overwhelmed every part of her.

She knew she was in a different world. Again.

And the horrifying truth was that….it always seems so real.

Then, as it always happened, she heard screaming somewhere and froze.

The footsteps. It's coming closer. She could hear the voices again.

More screaming.

It's closer. They are closer.

She tried to stand but couldn't. Every drop of water means a second and another until she heard the door opens and….

She met herself in another place. A room lit only by the light coming from the fireplace. 

She moved closer and saw something glowing on the wall.

As she placed her hand on it, the writings changed and rearranged itself.

Then, everything went dark and a word appeared in red in the air.

"Welcome to Elfina"
